I saw it on Longman and Cambridge.

I did not find "to chase up" in either website, but on Google I found it used by speakers of British and Australian speakers of English. It is most definitely not an American expression.
We used Longman in TESOL courses at the University of California at Riverside (UCR). To my surprise, many professors did not like Longman books and spent a lot of time criticizing them. Speaking English is much more of an art than a science, and few things seem chiseled in marble.

This is quite simple Thomas, I think.
English being a global language, we cannot only take in consideration what Americans think of the language.
People around the world might express the same idea and/or meaning in several different ways. Even we, Brazilians, can express it in a different way.
English is not more a British or American property, it belongs to the world.

Ok. I understand.
Thank you again.
Thank you again.

I guess it was a mistake for me to learn words like gurizada, bagual, trilegal, candomble, capoeira, vatapa, acaraje, cusco, pichincha, etc. They did not come from Portugal, where "true Portuguese" is spoken. rsrsrsrsrs

Hello Thomas,
We just wanted to tell you that Longman and Cambridge are reliable dictionaries, we didn´t say anything against American English, quite the opposite, in fact.

Guys, what about "to nag" when we're not talking about money?
"Don't nag me, I'll do it."
"Nadia's been nagging me to fix the lamp."
I hope I've helped.
All the best, folks.

One day, my teacher said to me that "charge" meant "cobrar"... ok!
But, today, she said that she didn´t remember about it and said that "charge" is money related, only...
What happened? It is simple, my teacher is in debt with me, because I did three activities in three weeks and she didn´t correct them yet. So, how word I use that means "cobrar"?

It really depends on context and where English is spoken(USA, UK, etc). "Cobrar" has more than one equivalent in English. Your teacher didn't give you a wrong word, "charge" is also correct, but it can't be used in all contexts as "cobrar" has other meanings besides "charge".
